McCain Mocks Obama's Iraq Views
TYLER, Texas (AP) - Republican presidential hopeful John McCain mocked Democrat Barack Obama on Wednesday for saying he would take action as president ``if al-Qaida is forming a base in Iraq.''
``When you examine that statement, it's pretty remarkable,'' McCain told a crowd in Tyler, Texas.
``I have some news. Al-Qaida is in Iraq. It's called `al-Qaida in Iraq,''' McCain said, drawing laughter at Obama's expense.
Obama quickly answered back, telling a rally at Ohio State University in Columbus, ``I do know that al-Qaida is in Iraq.''
McCain said he had not watched the Democratic presidential debate on Tuesday night but was told of Obama's response when asked if as president he would reserve the right to send U.S. troops back into Iraq to quell an insurrection or civil war.
Obama did not say whether he'd send troops but responded: ``As commander in chief, I will always reserve the right to make sure that we are looking out for American interests. And if al-Qaida is forming a base in Iraq, then we will have to act in a way that secures the American homeland and our interests abroad.''
